Critical Reviews
In these latest additions to this popular series, readers go deep into the emotional impact of playing sports. In Track Troubles, a young runner is uncomfortable with losing her spot as the "GOAT" on the team and starts pushing herself too hard. In Wrestling Rivals, a wrestler is shocked and dismayed when his biggest rival joins his team and threatens his spot as the best. Slightly older fans of sports fiction will appreciate this deeper look at what it takes to stay positive and focused while competing in team sports. A glossary, discussion questions, writing prompts, and some facts about the sport are appended. VERDICT Recommended for collections where the other Jake Maddox books are in demand.-- "School Library Journal"
